Hot December
Contests have kept most sane throughout the year, riding out challenge of low earnings, bringing people together on blockchain social media, or watching many leave. Keep walking!
We tend to get rain late afternoons, morning walks made in local park gets everyone out into the sun enjoying the moment. Soaking up the sun or playing dodgems with the heat, retreating under the trees for shade.
First photograph shows the tennis courts, squash courts and to the left is play ground for children, behind which is the Toti rugby club house. This is half way through the walk which winds it's way around all the amenities available.
A deeply shaded area affording a walk in summer staying out of the sun. Big and small, old and young arrive to walk dogs, enjoy the bird life, cycle along paths designated to cycling, or meet to partake in sport.
Looking up through the dense growth along the river bank shielded from the sun, birds are very busy with many photographs shared from this area. Dogs do doggie things like pull you too and fro, greet each other sometimes in a friendly manner, or bark madly while passing with us hanging on, the requirement is all dogs need to walk on a leash.
Seasonal rains have been good to us this year, the river is running, variety of green shows plants are happy.
Here we leave 2019 on our last park walk during this year, wishing everyone a happy festive season!
